60" Projection - Screen shrinks down then back up

60" Phillips 9P6031C1 Projection

When first turned on and for about 10-15 minutes, the picture is full screen, then shrinks proportional to the center of the screen. Is this anything that I can fix myself or should I call someone to come out and look at?

    I have same problem, but would like to repair it myself. I am a qualified Radar tech. Can you be more specific or provide schematics?

    Thanks.

Problem solved.
I had the exact same problem with my Magnavox TV. The screen would shrink then expand. After thrity minutes it would correct itself. Then one day it just broke - no sound and no video. I searched these forums but did not find clear instructions on how to fix it. I gave up and called in a repair tech. He fixed my TV in less than 30 minutes.  To help others like me I documented the fix and created a step by quide and repair kit to fix the problem. You can find it here. http://www.magnavoxhelp.com

Hello djhastings,

This could denote a low voltage power supply problem or a High voltage power supply problem. I would suggest that you get a qualified TV repair technician to troubleshoot this problem. I have seen and repaired this type of problem before and I have seen the main voltage regulator cause this in some sets and I have also seen a regulator in the HV section cause the same problem.

I hope this helps,
Thank you,

Phillips 60 inch projection tv

you can ask a good tv Technion man, since if it happens to be like that then in coming day u will have to face problems. So since this very common problem which will arise in old tv. Actually the real problem is that, some parts in the board may have become weak or the molded part in the board may have fallen down ,so changing that particular part or molding again may fix that problem. Since i am not an Technion I don't the right terms to help u.I have see this problem in many places and don't worry your picture tube is well and good.
